Overview
You will develop a proposal for review by the hospital leadership team. This proposal
should contain the following (at minimum):
? Executive summary detailing the need for collaborative care teams (CCT) and why
they will benefit the hospital.
? At least one paragraph to summarize each of the following components, citing
relevant research as applicable. Assume fictional information to formulate your
rationale:
o Benefits of CCT to patients
o Benefits of CCT to clinical staff
o Structure of CCT (what providers are involved, and to what degree)
o Oversight and assessment (who is responsible for tracking the success or
failure)
o Operational/Financial risks or areas of concern
o Timeline for implementation
o Conclusion: summarize key points to “sell” this proposal. Ideally, this will become
a standardized model of care in your hospital, if a pilot is successful.
